Beefsteak Tomato 'Striped German'

Large, multi-chambered beefsteak tomato with yellow and red-flamed fruits, a so-called Pineapple tomato (the flesh resembles that of a pineapple). This two-tone colour is visible all the way into the flesh: a beautiful effect for salads. Its complex, fruity aroma combined with a soft texture and thin skin is popular. Some fruits can reach 300 grams; the larger they get, the more irregular their shape can be.
